i was reffering to babagirls

as a a joke of course


your thread title is far from reality,this means you are not familiar with the whole can-spam law,spammers etc

spam will increase now. So far the only can-spam compatible email i'm receiving comes from from join4free. (i opted some months ago to monitor the marketing strategies of big mail sponsors). Normally join4free shouldn't flag their titles as -ADLT- since it's a 2ble optin mailing. Spammers haven't started following the law and i doubt if they plan.

If you think spam is coming to an end just from a USA Today poll you really should find another line of work.
If USA Today asked people if they look at porn and 86% said no would you think the porn biz was coming to an end?
Have you heard of the can-spam law?

It would be so good, but it is impossible. Maybe you could obtain some results if you oblige all the ISPs of the whole world to apply restrictive filters, but there are already different laws between USA and Europe, so the way to do is still long...

Unless there is some bulletproof new technology, spam is not going away any time soon. It will just move offshore. All CAN SPAM does is rein in LEGIT bulkers.

I'm sure there are law makers who really do believe that if they pass a law on the net that, "Those boys downstairs in the computer lab can flip some switches and shut off the porn and spam."

SPAM will never die. It will be reduced and there will be people going to jail / having to declare bankruptcy but spam...the crime.. will never die.

The same way all these anti-drug laws put people in prison to be ass raped but the crime still exists and is thriving.

To say spam will go away is just ignorant. Spam will never go away, people on both sides of the line are making money. Large corporations are making money and now trying to monopolize all of this. Sure spamming will be harder and it may eliminate some mailers but your not going to see it completely eliminated. So called higher organizations wont let that happen and ill gurantee that. Be prepared to see ALOT more spam in 2004..

In essence, I agree. Like any other activity that is being regulated...it will probably be minimized but it won't entirely go away.

90% of the Internet's spam comes from Boca Raton Florida. Spamhaus have
nailed down that most spam comes from a list of 200 people they have identified.
The spam groups work together and have created pretty much what we all see today
in our inboxes.

Have you noticed since Dec.31.2003 that spam has diminished to a degree? You
can thank the CAN-SPAM Act 2003 for that. It has sent a tidal wave of effect
on those large spammers and they are forced now to use servers in China. Pretty
much all the methods they have used for years are no longer "legal" and if abused
they will be prosecuted.

You can thank spamhaus.org for their relentless effort to quell this collection of
parasites and to [at the very least] kill a large majority of the spam we have been
seeing for years.
http://www.spamhaus.org

Fake opt-out links and many other methods are now prosecutable and it has put
a good deal of fear into those fuckers.

What to see something funny? Alan Ralsky has been named as the largest spammer
on the Web. All the money this pig makes and this is the best he can physically look?
About 1.5 million dollars and 3 good plastic surgeons could at least make him not
look like a corpse. (photo at bottom of page).
